    Not really. Along most major roads, if trees are close enough to even potentially be a problem, they will be trimmed by road crews.

    It’s not because they get hit by trucks, it’s because they’re deliberately trimmed back to keep the road clear.

      on the route of my bus route in HS you could see that the shape of the trees were exactly the shape of the busses, so either it was the busses trimming the trees or a very impressive lumberjack showing off for no benefit at all

      They dont get trimmed enough and usually get “trimmed” by passing tractor trailers.
